“who’s your blorbo?” is singular? in this economy?? I don’t know how y'all are doing it, but it costs me 6 blorbos minimum just to get through the fucking day. due to inflation. :(

Fucked up that you have to go to work during the winter. Should be curled up in a little nest with several months’ supply of food stocked up right now.

Do we count this as a passive rickroll?

A BlueSky post screenshot:  Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson.bsky.social) This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares) Quoted post: Jay Hulme (@jayhulmepoet.bsky.social) Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.ALT

A very important addition from Rian Johnson himself

Looking at what national news outlets are up to right now, one might not realize a whole major US metropolitan area is, you know, sort of under attack by paramilitary forces. Wild.

im sorry the What is being What now???

While it’s not going unreported entirely, what’s been happening in Minnesota and in Minneapolis–Saint Paul in particular since Renee Good was murdered is not getting the attention it should be.

There are already 2000 gangsters from DHS deployed, and “hundreds” or “1000” more are on the way, depending on which Trumpland person you ask. As a point of reference, the Twin Cities’ actual police total just under 1200 (600 in Minneapolis and 590 in Saint Paul according to the depts’ sites).

The feds there are more or less attacking people at random. They’ve gone door-to-door for “citizenship checks” (completely illegal). They’ve knocked doors down when residents haven’t complied (obviously also completely illegal). In addition to abducting and brutalizing the immigrants they come across during their rampages, they’ve done the same to US citizens of color and are also harassing, stalking and physically attacking observers.

Here are some local sources:

ICE intensifies Twin Cities operation after killing of Renee Good, protests (MPR News—link won’t embed)

Privacy advocates: ICE using private data to intimidate observers and activists (MPR News—link won’t embed)

Below are some videos from observers. I’m linking to Bluesky because that’s where I saw them, though many are originally from/also available elsewhere. I apologize for the rancid formatting below but it was the best I could do quickly-ish. The images are previews; click the links in the timestamps to watch.

I also recommend checking out this guy’s work:

catilinas:

It must have been a little after midnight when Gollum woke up: suddenly they were aware of his pale eyes unlidded gleaming at them. He listened and sniffed, which seemed, as they had noticed before, his usual method of discovering the time of night. 'Are we rested? Have we had beautiful sleep?' he said. 'Let's go!' 'We aren't, and we haven't,' growled Sam. 'But we'll go if we must.'ALT

meeeeeeeeeeee. right now. NOT rested have NOT had beautiful sleep
